Our second low caffeine varietal was produced by Daterra in the Cerrado region. Their larger estate allows them to invest heavily into R&D and to produce some of the most exciting microlots and varietals in Brazil. This lot is honey processed and contains naturally only 0.7% of caffeine (regular Arabica beans contain 1.4-1.8%). You will taste notes of caramel, chocolate and dates, rounded off with flavours of mango, jasmine and prunes.

Aramosa is an Arabica/Racemosa cross breed that inherited the strengths of both varietals - the high resistance and naturally low levels of caffeine of Racemosa, with the delicious cup qualities of Arabica. We are currently running a project with Daterra, who gave us 0.5 hectares of Aramosa to experiment with different levels of honeys. Daterra is well-known for their Masterpiece Collection, an online auction held every year.
